[@ROCKETRALPH]

😂😂😂

[@endurodz]

I found best KTM kickstand is no kickstand. No more trouble !!!

[@rmatvmc]

Thanks for watching anyway. -Charles

[@FloridaDualSport]

Love the cutaway when installing the kickstand. Left out the tuff part. It's not that easy

[@pikey]

Thanks for the vid needed this, this week!

[@criticalthinking3709]

Every since I found this place I’ve ditched Revzilla entirely.

[@Rc2Go]

Hey, got a ktm 125sx bike, 09, it doesn’t have the mount near the foot peg for this device? It’s black and looks like the hole is the opposite way.

[@brookeday2967]

Seems like a lot of people are having kickstand problems on these 22 Austrian bikes, myself included…

[@andrecontois8510]

Tusk spring bolt comes out. Gotta thread lock it in there. Do better Tusk/Rocky Mountain!

[@thebooman3519]

Excellent and informative! Thanks!!!

[@TheMjdiste]

I had two brand new bikes that lost that bolt within the first 3 hrs. The one spring hit me in the face and narrowly missed my eye. What's worse is that my KTM dealer hasn't provided a replacement and I'm now heading into month three of trying. I called KTM customer service and they didn't offer any help either. KTM used to care about their customers.... those days are over. #ktm #iveboughtmylastktm #poordesign #classactionlawsuit #theydontcare #problems #customercare

Hello thanks for the video, I don't suppose you know what size the litte screw is by any chance do you?

I was about to throw my bike in the bin trying to get the kickstand spring on. Thank you for the very (now) obvious step to getting it on.

[@rmatvmc]

Glad we could help, thanks for watching! 😅

[@robertwimpenny5188]

Thanks for the help... had to go to one spring and save my sanity!

[@rmatvmc]

Any time! Thanks for watching!

[@Birdmoney_]

My bike it’s a 125 sx didn’t come with a stand can I still add one in it ?

[@rmatvmc]

Yes you can still add a kickstand to the bike. Check out the Warp 9 Add-On Kickstand: www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/warp-9-add-on-kickstand-p?s=1764986

[@davidboone3955]

my spring popped off at only 4 hours on bike.. 23 Husqvarna TE300 ... i found new springs on amazon

[@human1513]

Mine fell off 2 weeks ago.
Fortunately I had just finished washing the bike & took it off the box stand and it flew apart as I was lowering the side stand.while it was in the driveway.
5 hours on a 2022 KTM.

[@gustavodesouza30]

Thank you so much!!!

[@brodyloftus7187]

Watching this video just to realize I need a bracket with my new spring 😂 and he’s correct about the threads

[@cnw-jd9tt]

Will this work on a tc 250?

[@rmatvmc]

No, but this will www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/fastway-kickstand-p -Charles

[@matthewjensen8550]

Both the OEM and RM kickstands for the KTM's are completely garbage. They break in half right next to the bolt. In the past 100 hrs I've been through 3. Save a lot of money by just buying a quality kick stand

[@rmatvmc]

Really? What's happening when they break? The only issue we've seen is the small screw backing out that we mention in the video. -Charles

[@punchyapples7683]

That's tough to believe, unless you are trailering with the kick stand in the down position, strapping down too tight, and pulling your trailer whilst running from the law.

[@FloridaDualSport]

I drilled thru the stand and installed clevis pin in place of the small screw.

[@Bigbodysquid250x]

How the chain rolls soo close

[@sailor7557]

I might even drill out and retap to the next size up but the clevis pin sounds solid as well. The stock bolt is kinda puny.

[@jondavies4027]

Fantastic video

[@YT1344]

Is it possible in install these on SX models?

[@rmatvmc]

Try one of these www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/fastway-kickstand-p -Charles

[@louisdriscoll2580]

Why not do it when you first buy it new

[@franzv3172]

Because some people aren’t expecting their kickstand to blow apart 💁‍♂️

[@mijailfernandezr.5924]

Just on the perfect time, this morning I'm going to install my kickstand, thanks for another great video! You rock guys!
